About Transpelmo Sprint
The Transpelmo Sprint
Transpelmo is the famous skyrun that takes place around Monte Pelmo, in Val di Zoldo, in the province of Belluno, amidst the Dolomites. In 2026, the classic long course will not be held due to ongoing works in Pecol, which will continue until late autumn and prevent the use of the necessary spaces for organization (award tent, showers, services, parking). However, the Transpelmo Sprint, the shorter version of the race, remains on the calendar.
The 2026 Course
The Sprint is 8.5 km long with 650 meters of positive elevation gain. The start and finish are in Pecol (1,400 m): the course passes through Palafavera, Col delle Crepe, and Pian di Buoi, before returning towards Palafavera and tackling the final climb to Le Coste before the finish line. A mixed profile, technical and fast, immersed in the Dolomite landscape.
A Limited-Entry Race
Due to limited space in the start and finish area, participation is restricted to 200 competitors. Registration opens in mid-May on the event's official website.
Sport and Celebration at Altitude
Transpelmo is not just a race: on September 6, an after-race event with a DJ set among the historic tabià (traditional barns) of old Pecol is planned, an event that combines high-level trail running and conviviality in the heart of Val di Zoldo.
Transpelmo Sprint — edition 2026
The 2026 edition of the Transpelmo will be held in the Sprint format only, on September 6, as ongoing works in Pecol do not allow for the long course around Pelmo to take place.
The course is 8.5 km long with 650m of positive elevation gain: start and finish in Pecol (1,400 m), passing through Palafavera, Col delle Crepe, and Pian di Buoi, returning towards Palafavera and the final climb to Le Coste. Registration opens May 15, with places limited to 200 competitors.
